📊 Quick Records Check-In

Team	Overall	Home/Away	Last 5	Key Stat
Edmonton Oilers	8-7-4 (20 pts)	4-3-2 Road	1-2-2 (OT L vs CBJ, PHI)	3.05 GF/GP (7th) McDavid: 15P in 11GP
Carolina Hurricanes	12-4-2 (26 pts)	7-1-1 Home	4-1-0 (W vs NYR last night)	3.44 GA/GP (5th) Aho: 14P in 18GP

Oilers sit mid-pack out West after a hot 6-1-0 start, but injuries (Hyman out since last playoffs) and a .910 SV% from Stuart Skinner have cooled things. Canes? Elite forecheck (top-3 in Corsi), but they've leaked 3+ goals in 4 of their last 6—vulnerable if McDavid cooks.

🔥 Head-to-Head Snapshot (Last 5 Meetings, 2022–25)

Edmonton holds a 3–2 edge recently, but Carolina's owned Raleigh (3-1 in last 4 there). Avg. 6.2 goals/game—expect fireworks. (Updated post-March '25 Oilers W)

Nov 22, 2023	Raleigh	6–3	CAR	Forecheck clinic; EDM PP 0/5

Overall H2H (Reg. Season + Playoffs): Oilers 46-37-12. But that '06 Final? Still stings—Ward blanked us in G7. Time to flip it.

Lineup Buzz & Injury Report
12 of Oilers 19 games have been . . one goal games.
Oilers Boost: Zach Hyman debuts on the top line (McDavid-Draisaitl-Hyman)—his 54G pace last year + playoff grit (11P in 15GP) could unlock everything. Roslovic (5G, 6A in 10GP) extends his streak; Savoie heating up (1G, 2A last 2). Defense: Ekholm-Bouchard pair rolling (+8 in last 5). Skinner starts (.905 SV%, but 2.95 GAA road).
Canes Notes: Aho-Guentzel-Jarvis top trio (combined 35P); Svechnikov back from tweaks. Andersen in net (.920 SV%, but 3.00 GAA lately). Fast out for season (neck); Slavin day-to-day (minor knock).
X-Factor: Edmonton's PP (24.5%, 6th NHL) vs. CAR's PK (83.2%, 12th). If we draw calls, it's over. Canes' cycle game tests our D-zone clears.

Prediction & Betting Angle (Oilers Tilt)Carolina's the fave (-115 ML, -1.5 +180), but undervaluing Hyman's return and our rush speed. Oilers win 4-3 in OT—McDavid pots the decider, flipping that '06 script. O/U: Over 6.5 (both teams top-10 in GF lately). Best bet: EDM ML +105 (value on the 'dogs).
This road trip's make-or-break for playoff positioning—get the W, boys, and let's build momentum. Who's lighting the lamp first: 97 or 29?
